In this meeting we introduced our club for the 2024-2025
school year. We went over our timeline, including some of
the competitions we will participate in, and we introduced
our team.
In this lesson, we covered the various topics in
quantum mehanics including waves vs. particles,
wave-particle duality, and the double slit experiment.
In this lesson, we covered what Qiskit is and the basics of how
to use it. We discussed how to add qubits and classical bits, how
to draw circuits, apply gates, and more.
In this lesson, we continued to learn about quantum gates, focusing
on two qubit gates and entanglement. Entanglement is a fundamental
quantum phenomenon and will continue to play a major role in our
later meetings.
In this lesson, we learned about the challenges of preventing errors
in quantum computers, and learnt about phase and bit flip errors and
Shor's Code. We spent the rest of the meeting coding a version of it!
In this lesson, we took a look at one of the other languages,
Google Quantum AI's Cirq. This will help during hackathons and
improve understanding of how gates and circuits work by seeing
them in a different form.
In this lesson, we took a look at one of the other languages,
Mircrosoft's Q#. This will help understand how gates and circuits
operate by looking at them in a different format and make it easier
to deal with Q# if it appears in a hackathon.
